By Courtnie Deckwa October 6, 2024

Clayhouse Anacortes is the perfect spot for families to dive into hands-on creativity this fall. Unlike traditional paint-your-own pottery studios, Clayhouse offers the full pottery-making experience—working with wet clay to craft personalized mugs, planters, sculptures, and more! Whether you're a beginner or experienced, this welcoming studio invites all ages to get messy, have fun, and create something unique.

With fall in full swing, Clayhouse is rolling out an array of Halloween- and autumn-themed projects that are perfect for the whole family. Their upcoming Saturday morning "Family Time" and weekend workshops offer exciting, seasonal activities that will delight both kids and adults. Some highlights include:

  • October 5th: Make mini Jack O' Lantern votives or spooky clay ghosts.
  • October 19th: Create your own Jack O' Lantern dishes or more playful clay ghosts.
  • November 2nd: Craft mini pumpkins to add a festive touch to your fall decor.
  • November 9th: Pumpkin Patch! 
  • November 16th: Build mini gingerbread houses with clay.
  • November 23rd: Create large gingerbread houses—just in time for the holidays!
  • November 30th, December 7th, and December 14th: Jump into the holiday spirit with DIY ornaments or cookie plates, perfect for decorating your home or gifting.

These workshops provide an excellent way to spend quality family time while getting creative. No experience is necessary, and the friendly Clayhouse staff is there to guide you through every step. Most projects can be completed and glazed in about an hour, making it a fun, accessible activity for even the busiest families.

You can find more information and register for upcoming workshops, including their gingerbread house-making events, on the Clayhouse website under "Family Time" or "Saturday Morning Workshops."
